Feels like 'why do you care so much about what a stranger is doing' should be asked a lot more often and more pointedly

Wow it's crazy how this happens literally every single time, almost seems like none of these financers who fund these new studios have any fucking clue how much game development costs even after being told and shit their pants when asked for full development costs

instead of watching the dmc show why don't we hunt adi shankar for sport

I really think people shit on Stormblood too much, like yeah the primary story is kinda cheeks but it's where the game got good cutscenes and characters really started rounding out into a proper FF cast with lots of fun tertiary characters, I sure as shit liked it more than HW

There’s like a normal business conference right next to fanfest and after the concert let out this emet selch cosplayer got surrounded by business women and they were like squeeing and kyaaing while he showed them his ascian sigil prop im so glad the emet selch appeal crosses all barriers

"Pat that's ridiculous they're not going to "destroy" the 2 minute meta that's unreasonable" IM SO FUCKING SMART SHUT THE FUCK UP AHHHH

Man fuck the balance

Final Fantasy XIV announced for Nintendo Switch 2, coming this August

I hope we get FFXIV Eva expies Lala Asuka calls the WoL a slur

What if Trailblazer didn't want to be saved, Silver Wolf? What then, huh? 🤣🤣🤣 #HonkaiStarRail #Caefly #Silverwolf #HSR #Caelus #Firefly #Comic

Youtube videos with titles like "Too tired to cook? Try making this!" and then it's just them cooking an entire multi-step dish. Shut the fuck up and eat my entire ass. How's that for a quick and easy meal? You either don't know what "too tired" actually feels like, or don't know what "cook" means.

how it feels looking at every industry I wanted to be part of as a child/young adult

I just want the game to be patched to run at 60 fps on my PS5 Sony what are we doing here

she's right, but all these price increases were cause it wasn't profitable, especially not with Call of Duty being on there. Can't see how they square the circle without just ending the whole 'Day 1 for Every Microsoft game' thing. ...Which is probably what they'll do.

Games in fanatical franchises there are really only two types of backseating and they combine to form the worst possible advice. 1st is insane superfans who don't remember what it was like to not be playing the games for the 10th time, and people who played it once 20 years ago and forgot everything

it isn't hard confirmed yet but I'm betting the house on 'Imu did all that because they couldn't get pussy'

We've had years of Game Pass now. So I hope it's completely uncontroversial to say that this is terrible for both devs and consumers and this company should be shut down immediately.

The PS6 for $1000 is a great deal actually if you consider Moore's Law is dead and you'll never get another generation worth buying before you're fucking dead. Parents would've killed for a $1000 box that's the last you'd ever need to buy. [This is a dark commentary on how fucked everything is]

There are people who should pay for this, even though there is no extracting enough from them to cover it. There are things we should learn from this, even though they're things we already knew. There are things we should do about this, even though we're well out of practice doing them.

For all that, it wouldn't be quite so horrible if this completely avoidable tragedy of the gutting of an entire art form were self contained, and not inextricably wedded to the great slathering thief behemoth whose shambling plod now fragiley sustains and will inevitably destroy our entire economy.

Instead we get this. To watch an entire generation of talent wasted and burned out to submit to the whims of a power team-up of incompetent finance brained executives and ignorant shortsighted investors, the meager products of which are themselves swallowed by the rampage of blind tech bro avarice.

Videogames should have been thriving. We should be currently in the midst of an era defining flowering of institutional experience translating into a transformative refinement of both the design and production aspects of game making resulting in new horizons of experiences and possibilities.

I've been saying for a bit that I think GTAVI will be the best selling game this year (assuming its this year) but also be considered a failure with massive layoffs at Rockstar following its release

MAKE A SMALLER GAME

maybe I should just start saying shit like "no game should have a larger map than skyrim"

I sometimes forget yoshi p i just allowed to say stuff like this

had to make this games industry compilation after hearing digital foundry's really bad response to the dlss 5 backlash

99% of AI shit is just the worst people in the world re-inventing Clippy over and over

mental ward, now

serial killers often fixate on minute improvements to their methodology in the desperate hope mastering their method of choice will make the rush of their first kill return, and I think tech guys are rapidly getting to that point now

I think if someone said this to me I'd be going to prison

Another sample for the chibi This time it's...Firefloosh sending out ♥️♥️♥️! Might have the art raffle up tomorrow, I'm too eep rn, sleep wacked thanks to the electricity being weird TTATT #HonkaiStarRail #Firefly #HSR #Chibi

Plagiarists rarely steal just the thing you caught them for

Maybe I'm out of pocket but I'm kind of shocked at the turnaround people are giving Marathon considering it's a sham reboot of a dead franchise that got caught plagiarizing an artist for their entire aesthetic to the point where the game couldn't be shown for months.

My review of the Marathon Sever Slam is that all modern shooter trends suck. In years past this would just be A mode I never boot in an otherwise cool FPS now it's somehow the only thing that Bungie has been working on for years and will either kill the company or become the only thing they ever do.

I'd be such a lesser, worse person with so much less joy in my life without the trans people I know. The fact there are people so miserable and pathetic they cannot abide others living their lives in a way that makes them happy is pitiful. We truly cannot heap enough scorn on transphobes.

GO! MY LABUBU MISSILE! KILL!

I wish I could shit on game companies more but literally every media company is incapable of making anything now. It takes 4-6 years to make 8 episodes of television and there's no reason it should beyond a managerial class that is both wildly egotistical and completely useless

I fucking give up man. I'm just gonna play retro games, fan games and mods for the 10 years

If executives were soulless husks purely motivated by profit and made decisions purely based on metrics things would actually be better, but CEOs aren't even that. They're all complete fucking morons who lead based on vibes, and will torch the company they run before admitting their strategy was bad

- want games for your platform - don't buy milk, buy the cow, just buy studios instead of hiring them - buy a dozen companies - realize having 30000 employees across every timezone on the planet trying to collaborate is hard to organize - lay everyone off

Recent Sony game studio acquisitions - 2021: Nixxes - 2021: Firesprite (layoffs in 2024) - 2021: Bluepoint (closed in 2026) - 2022: Valkyrie Entertainment - 2022: Haven Studios - 2022: Bungie (layoffs in 2024; new game soon) - 2022: Neon Koi (closed in 2024) - 2023: Firewalk (closed in 2024)

cancel your PS+ right now if you sub. Sony is only profitable because of that

Sony is so fucking washed holy shit. There is no hope.

One takeaway from the DICE convention here in Las Vegas, where game makers gather to pitch and schmooze? Most video games should not cost $70. This week’s column: www.bloomberg.com/news/newslet...

there's no tactful way to say it, but your online game really is cooked if nobody wants to fuck any of your characters

This happening was probably inevitable but still to axe most of the team so soon after launch? Do studios just have no plan or funds set aside to at least keep their team around and try to fix things for at least a few months? This sucks ass for all the devs involved
